Today's weather forecast (Melbourne CBD, 3000): min - 16°C, max - 22°C. 25% chance of at least 1mm of rain

Emoji inspiration: I call this part of the year (the time between Boxing Day and New Year's Day) the "never-never times" because some things are open, others are closed, some people are working, a lot not, so fuck all gets done, and if you need anything besides food or groceries, you're basically SOL

Happy International Day of Epidemic Preparedness!

It’s fine dude. You’ve just made a huge milestone leap that you will need to settle from - only to be met by a nauseating sensory nightmare.

The heat can’t be helping

[–] Baku@aussie.zone 3 points 7 months ago

Thanks Melbsy. You're right, the heat is absolutely not helping. Well, maybe it does kind of help decomposition, but it does not help smell, and it does not help brain capacity and tolerance. But good news, somebody said they could lend me a portable air con from Monday til I sort something else out. My electricity bill is gonna be fucked, but yeah, I'll gladly take just having a cold blast of air at my head at this point
